Why does aptosid always creating the following files?
debian.list.save
aptosid.list.save
How can I disable it?

aptosid doesn't ever create any of those files and none of my (installed long time ago) systems has those, so they must be a relict of some "non-standard" applications you use (like an editor with auto-backup or some GUI application that allows modifying the sources.list).

For me kwrite created .asm~ backup for an .asm file.
This can be changed in the editor settings.
